Flyer for Releasing Anger and Resentment

Continuing with our metta (lovingkindness) series, tonight we'll be learning about how to work with anger and resentment. In particular, we'll examine how anger serves a valuable role, how to honor anger, and how to work with anger through metta and mindfulness practice. I (Sumi) will be teaching a bit on the topic, and then we'll do a fairly extensive guided meditation which will be followed by small group discussion. Beginners and all are welcome.

Food Provided (Tea and mochi social hour follows.)

Buddhist Chaplain

Yale Chaplain's Office

Before joining Yale in 2018, I served as the Buddhist chaplain at Duke University for 8 years. I received a BA in fine arts from Williams College, followed by an MA in Buddhist Studies and Sanskrit from the Harvard Divinity School. I was raised in a Zen community until I was just shy of 9, where my parents lived and practiced. In my teens, I became a student of the Theravada (insight) lineage. I’m the author of Blue Jean Buddha (2001); The Buddha’s Apprentices (2005); Sitting Together (2017); and Goodnight Love (2023), among others. My husband, Professor Kim, teaches courses in Buddhism with the Department of Religious Studies, and we have two nearly-adult children.
